New York, October 24.—Governor
Tilden has addressed,' to Hon. Abram S.
Hewitt, a letter dated to-day, declaring

He quotes the Fourteenth Amendment of

it has been repeatedly approved by tho
Democratic State Committee of the
South, and was adopted as a part of the
platform cf the last National Democratic
Committee, which declared it to be uni
versally accepted as a final settlement.
Governor Tilden, after citing bis own
public declaration cn the subject previ
ously made, says: “Should I bo elected
President, the provisions of the 14th
Amendment will, so far as depends on
me, bo maintained, executed ar.d
enforced ia perfect and absolute good
faith. No rebel debt will be assumed or
paid, no claim for the loss or emaocipa
tion of any slave will bo allowed, n<
claim for any loss or damage incurred by
disloyal persons, arising from the late
war, whether covered by the Fourteenth
Amendment or not, will be recognized or
paid, the cotton tax will not be refunded.
I shall deem it my duty to veto every
bill providing for tho assumption or pay
ment of any such debts, losso3, damage?,
claim?, or for tho refunding of any such
tax.
Tho danger to the national treasury is
not from the claims of persons who aided
the rebellion, but from the claims of per
sons residing in the Southern States, or
having property in those State?, who
were, or 'pretended to be, or who. for the
sake of aiding claims, now pretend to
have been loyal to the Government of
tbo Union. Sneh claims, even of loyal
persons, where they are from acts
caused by the operations of tho war,
have been disowned by the public law of
civilized nations, condemns i by adjudi
cation of the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States, and only find any status by
force of specifio legislation of Congress.
These claims have become stale and are
often tainted with fraud. They are nearly
always owned in whole or in part by
claim agents, by speculators, or lobbyists
who have no equity against the tnxpay-
era or tho public. They ehould in all
cases be scrutinized with zealon? care.
Tho calamities to individa i's which
were inflicted by tbo late war ar*-, for the
most part, irreparable. The Government
cannot recall to life the million of our
youth who wont to untimely grave?, nor
compensate the suffering-, or sorrow of
their relatives or friends. It cannot re
adjust between individuals the bur-
dons of taxation hitherto borne, or of
debts incurred by sustaining the Gov
ernment which are yet to be paid. It can
not apportion anew among our citizens
the damages or losses incident to military
operations or resulting in every variety
of form from its measures for maintain
ing its own existence. It has no safe
general rulo but to let bygones be by
gones—to turn from the dead past to a
new and better future, and on that
basis to assure peace, reconciliation
and fraternity between all sections,
classes and races of our people, to tbo end
that all the springs of our production,
and indnstries may b*e quickened and a
new prosperity created in which the evils
of the past shall be torgotten.

Charleston, October 25.—The Presi
dent of the Chamber of Commerce ha3
united with tho Methodist, Catholic and
Episcopal Bishops and leading Presbyto
rian, Lutheran, Baptist and Jewish min
isters, and the presidents of all the
national and other banks in Charleston^
in the following address on the condition
of South Carolina:
To the People of the United States: Well
foundod apprehensions that tho civiliza
tion of oar State is in danger of being ut
terly overthrown, and an overruling
sense oE duty to ourselves and posterity
and the country at large impel us to make
an authentic statement of our actual con
dition to the American people, in the hope
that it will induce them to extend to us
their sympathy and aid in this distressing
exigency of onr affairs.
There is so much at stake that we can
not afford to be Bilent, or to withhold
any effort that may possibly be of avail.
For ten long, weary years the white peo
pie of South Carolina have endured t
condition of things which any Northern
State would have been tempted to throw
off in two years at tho point of the bayo
net, if it could have been done in no
other way. They bore and forbore, in
tho hope that some returning eense of
justice and happy stroke of fortune
would bring relief, but no such sense of
justice, or happy stroke, came to their
relief, and hope sickened and died away
in their hearts.
At last they determined, as by a com
mon impulse and a natural and uncon
trollable instinct of freedom, to make ono
supremo c-ffort for their redemption, bnt
to make it under and within the lav.
Those who held authority hero haring,
through party affiliation, access to the
highest organs of politio power in the
country, and to the equally powerful
organs of the partisan newspaper press,
have snbjeoted this people to tbo vileet
misrepresentation and the most orael
slanders. Some of these we desire to
oorrcct.
It is not truo that the white people of
South Carolina aro disloyal or disaffected
toward tho United States Government.
On the contrary, they are loyal and well
affected towards it. They obey it at
home, and weuld defend it promptly from
foreign aggression. It is not true that
South Carolina, or any of its counties, are
in a state of insurrection or domestic vio
lence against tho government of the
State, or that law processes cannot be
duly enforced within her territorial lim
its, or that thera is any lawful causa or
occasion whatever for tho Federal Gov
ernment to interfere for tho protection of
tho State Government against the vio
lence of her citizens.
It is not tine that tho white people of
the Slate are hostile to tho colorod peo
pie, or have any design or disposition to
abridge or interfero with their political
or oivil rights. On tho contrary, in their
conventions, and in tho speeohes of their
candidates for sixyeats or more tho most
publio and solemn pledges have been
given that all tho rights of the colored
people shall bo respoated and protected.
The colored people should know that
theso pledges will be faithfully kept.
It is not truo that tho few rifle clubs
in the Stnto ore combinations of men
against the law, or that they areongag
od in murdering some peaceablo citizens
and intimidating others, or that thoy
cannot be controlled or suppressed by
tho ordinaly course of justice. The
President has been deceived. These
clubs existed with the knowledge and
recognition of tho Governor. Not one
of them ever acted in defiance of law, or
against the Government or constituted
authorities. The hostility to them by
Governor Chamberlain and hi3 coadju
tation ia recent—it is political, and is
designed to affect the coming election.
It is not truo that in tho recent race
collisions, tho white people have been
the aggressors. Their forbearance as in
the Charleston riot, the unprovoked
Cain Hoy massacre and the still more re
cent assassination of white citizens in
Edgefield has been wonderful.
The truth is that the leaders of the
colored people, fearing that tho day of
their power is drawing to a cloee, have
excited their ignorant dupes, have sup
plied them with arms, have aroused their
fears for the loss of their liberties and
have thus encouraged them to commit
deeds of violence.
Wo may also affirm somo things which
are true. It is true that there is in the
State a most active, earnest and exeited
canvass to overthrow corrupt rulo and
re-establish honest State government.
This is a legitimate and lawful object,
which should command tho sympathy
and support of every lover of his country.
It is not treason to defeat Chamberlain,
nor is it insurrection nor domestic vio
lence to elect Hampton.
It is tine that while (he white rifle
dubs are ordered by tbo Governor
and the President to disband and dis
perse, the colored militia of tbo State aro
allowed to remain in organization and in
possession of their arm3 and to attend
political meetings in military order with
rifles and other arms. The object of this
discrimination i3 as obvious a3 is tho
comparatively defenseless condition in
which it plaoe3 the white population.
Wo simply ask what would the people
of New York and Massachusetts think or
do upon a like applioatioD of the bayonet
polioy to them under snchoircumstances?
Fellow oouctrymer, we have sought to
place before you briefly and in true col
ors the condition of Sonth Carolina—the
wrongs cf her people, their patient for
bearance, and their new bom hopes.
Not loDg ago Gov. Chamberlain, in a
transport of trntbfnl and genuine enthu
siasm, proclaimed to the people of the
oonntry the startling faot that the civiliza
tion of the Puritan, and the Cavalier of
the Round Head and Huguenot was in
peril in South Carolina. He spoke these
words under the inspiration of his better
angel, for truer words be never spoke,
and they aro as true now a3 then. The
peril is greater now than theD, for when
the worst and most degraded elements of
society enter into or conlrol a govern
ment, iB there not mnch reason to appre
hend some catastrophe which wo hardly
care to contemplate?

Washington, October 25.—Tho fol-
lowing ia tho text of the first part of Til-
den’s letter. What follows wa3 tele
graphed verbatim last night:
New York, October 24,1376.
To Hon. Abram S. Hewitt:
’ Sir—I haTO received your letter in
forming me that Republicans high in
authority are publicly representing that
the South desires, not without hope, to
regain payment fer loss sustained in the
late war and to have provision made for
the rebel debt and for the losses of slaves,
as the payment of such losses and claims
was not to bo made important enongh to
deserve the notice of either convention
at the time it was held. You also ask mo
to state my view3 in regard to their rec
ognition by the Government. Though
disposed myself to abide by tho issue as
made up already, I have no hesitation to
comply with your reqnest.
Tho fourteenth amendment of tho Con
stitntion expressly provides as follows
“ The validity of tho public debt of the
United States authorized by law, includ
ing the debt inourred for the payment of
pensions and bounties for services in sup
pressing insurrection or rebellion, shall
not be questioned, but neither the United
States nor any State shall assume or pay
any debt or obligation incurred in aid of
insurrection or rebellion agamst the
United States, or any claimfor the loss or
emancipation of any slaves; bnt all such
debts, obligations and claims shall be
held illegal and void.”
This amendment has be On repeatedly
approved and agreed to by Democratic
State conventions of the South. It was
unanimously adopted as a part of the
platform in the Democratic National
Convention at St. Louis on the 2Sth of
Jane, and was declared by that platform
to be universally accepted as a final
settlement of the controversies that
engendered the civil war.
My own position on this subject bas
been previously declared on many occa
sions, and particularly in my first annual
message of January 1st, 1875. In that
document I stated that the Southern peo
ple wero bound by the 13th, 14th and 15th
Constitutional amendments, that they
had joined at National Convention in the
nomination of candidates, ia the declara
tion of prinoiplos and purposes, whioh
form an authentic eoceptaaoe of tho
results of the war embodied in the
last three amendments to the organized
law of tho Federal Union, and that they
had, by the suffrages of all their voters at
the list national election, completed the
proof that now they only seek to share
with us and to maintain tho common
rights of American local-self government
in a fraternal union under the old flag,
with one constitution and destiny. Ido
clared, at the same time that tho ques
tions settled by tho war are never to be
roopened.
The adoption of the thirteenth, four
teenth and fifteenth amendments to the
Federal constitution closed ono era in onr
politics. It marked the end, forever, of
the system of human slavery and of the
struggles that grew out of that system.
These amendments have been conclu
sively adopted and they have been ac
cepted in good faith by all political or
ganizations and the people of all sec
tions.* They close the chapter. They
are and must bo final. All parties, here
after, must accept and stand upon them
and, hencefcrtb, onr politics are to turn
upon questions of tho present and the
future and not upon those of the settled
and final past.

Letter from Mllledgevllle.
Milledgkville, October 24,1876.
Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Hon.
T. M. Norwood mado ono of the ablest
speeehe3 to day that wa3 ever delivered
in the historic Representative Hall of the
old Capitol building. His audience,
though not very large, comprised much
ef tho intelligence of Baldwin county.
Senator Norwood’s arraignment of the
Radical party for it3 corruptions and
abuses was masterly. His Bpaech drew
from his audienco repeated and enthusi
astic bursts of applause, which was par
ticipated in by even a dozen or two col
ored citizens who were present. The ex
posure of the Freedmen’s Bank swindle
was rich beyond description, os also that
ef the celebrated Credit Holder■, and
others. Wo had read Mr. Norwood’s
published speeches in Congress, but wo
sad net heard him deliver cny one of
them. But hi3 oral utterances excel our
expectations greatly. His irresistible
hnmor, his fierce invective, his states
manlike views and his patriotic conserva
tism, all commend him to the people as
the proper successor of himself in in the
Senate of the United States. We should
lose by swapping him off for anyone else.
Such, I am sure, is the sentiment of
Baldwin connty.
Cotton ia still coming freely into onr
market; bnt the prices do not remune
rate the planter for its production.
Nearly all the. proceeds'of'the'erop have
been anticipated by producers. The
purchasers t?k9 the crops for prior in
debtedness, and scarcely any money goes
into circulation. Far the greater portion
of tho crop is harvested. Tho entire
crop will scarcely alleviate our "hard
times” perceptibly.
The health of our city continues ex
cellent. Tho contractors aro pushing
rapidly forward the work on the new
bridge over the Oconee river. It will be.
completed in bnt little more than &

Emaciation a Remediable Defect.
Leanness not only detracts from per
sonal comeliness, bnt i3 an index that the
blood is deficient in rutritivo properties.
To remedy emaciation, enneh and purify
the blood, which wiD then develop
healthy flesh. This object, is mo?t readily
attained through the agency of the great
blood fertilizer and depurent, Hostetler’s
Stomach Bitters, which enables the
stomach to extract from the food taken
into it ample nourish ment for the system,
removes all obstacles to complete diges
tion and assimilation, and by stimulating
the kidneys to vigorous action, incites
those organs to strain from the vital fluid
in its passage through them impurities
which would otherwise impair its flesh-
creating qualities. Not only do the Bit
ters promote tho development of solid
fiber, but they also increase muscular
power and elasticity, overcome nervous
ness, banish men .al depression, and pro
tect tho system against disease.

For Fains in the Rack, Kidney Com-

bility, Veoetine acts directly upon The
causes of these complaints. It invigorates and

cretive organs, allays imlammation, cures ulcer
ation and regulates the bowels.
For Catarrh, Dyspepsia, Habitual

Tho romarkaUo cures effected by Veoetine
have induced many physicians and apothecaries
whom we know to prescribe and use it in their
own famllios.
In fact, Veoetine is the hest remedy yet
discovered for tho above diseases, and is the only
reliable BLOOD PURIFIER yet placed
beforo the public.
